We have often discussed how we can outsource and automate our processes. This approach allows us to reduce the hustle portion of our side-hustle. While that is a crucial step, it is also one that can provide its own challenges. Outsourcing, in particular, is a learned skill and one that takes patience and research. In this episode, we will look at some key considerations when you take this essential step.
Refine Processes To Outsource And AutomateAutomation and outsourcing are similar in one core aspect. They require us to refine and tightly define our processes. We cannot be vague in our understanding or describing our processes. If we are not specific in our definitions, then how can we expect a person or computer to reproduce the results accurately? That is our first step. We must master our processes, and then we can look for ways to outsource and automate them as we move towards passive income.
Team Building Is EssentialWhether we hire fifty people or an individual, we are building a team for our solution. They will need to be comfortable working with each other and with you as well. This concept is often overlooked when building a team. The idea of chemistry is mentioned. However, most professional teams appear to be selected based on skills first, and chemistry is a bonus. You will be far more successful if you chase after both. The team must have the skills to get the job done. Also, they need to be able to work cohesively, dare I say it, as a team.
